🌿 Kokedama Workshop with Uncommon Plant Guy
A hands-on houseplant workshop, exploring wabi sabi and anti-perfectionism
Looking for a creative and relaxing night out? Join the Uncommon Plant Guy—Chicago’s houseplant expert—for a 90-minute experience where you’ll create your very own kokedama: a stunning Japanese-inspired moss ball planter. It’s the perfect mix of mindful crafting, plant care, and all of the dirt-under-your-fingernails joy without the mess!
Our host, Winifred Grace, is a lifestyle boutique featuring a carefully curated collection of handmade jewelry, apparel, vintage goods, and home accessories. They are also the home of Love Linked x Winifred Grace, Chicago’s premiere permanent jewelry experience.
After the workshop, you’ll leave with a beautiful, rustic-chic living sculpture — a one-of-a-kind piece that brings simple, organic beauty to your home.
🪴 What’s Included:
- A healthy, high-quality plant
- All materials to create your kokedama
- A step-by-step printed workbook to take home
- Expert instruction on plant care to help your kokedama thrive long after the workshop
đź‘‹ What to Expect:
Bring your friends and a drink and dive into the calming world of wabi-sabi—the Japanese philosophy of finding beauty in imperfection. You’ll be guided step-by-step through crafting your kokedama, while also learning all about your specific plant: how to care for it, when to water it, and how to help it flourish at home.
No prior plant experience needed. Just show up, get your hands a little dirty, and leave with something beautiful that adds a touch of rustic, boho-inspired charm to your space.

- Plant lovers and total beginners alike
- Crafters and poeple who love working with their hands
